“Young man, is your house in this town?”The driver was a middle-aged man. He asked warmly and flashed a smile.Gerald nodded.“Well, congrats, kiddo, your town is about to undergo quite a significant development, and no piece of land here will be left unattended! Not only will they provide housing fees, but also demolition fees and many job opportunities too! You look like a college student, so when you’re back home, you should make good use of this opportunity!”“Yeah, that would be nice!”As they chatted along the way, they eventually arrived at Gerald’s hometown.It was a town, but Gerald’s home was in a small village in the middle of the city—a town village.There were many families in the village that run mills. They ran businesses like milling flour and such.Back then, the best part about the village was the fantastic fragrance of freshly milled flour in the air.But this trip back to his village, it was apparent that the fragrance of milled flour which Gerald missed w

“What do you mean by that, old man? What do you mean it’s theirs? I’m warning you, I’ve consulted with a lawyer, and if we bring this to court, the contract you signed will not be counted! The real estate certificate is ours anyway!” Sandrilla said frantically.‘Seems like they’ve been quarreling about the matter for quite some time now.’ Gerald thought to himself.Earlier, when he called Mr. Winters, he sensed that Mr. Winters was in a bad mood.It turned out that they had been quarreling.Even if the housing estate belonged to the Crawfords, why would Gerald even fight with them for it?“Besides, didn’t Gerald win the lottery? Why would he still care about this house anyway! And I don’t know where I lost the house key for the lock!” Sandrilla continued, fuming. “Hmph!” Mr. Winters grunted as he picked up a large rock from the ground.“Excuse me, what do you think you’re doing?” Sandrilla asked as she stepped back in anxiousness. Mr. Winters then stormed towards the door a

They threw death stares at Gerald.Gerald had unintentionally embarrassed them previously at the hospital. Because of that incident, any word that came out of his mouth at the moment seemed to be just infuriating.“Okay, that’s enough. It has been a while since Gerald came back, so let’s eat first.” The eldest brother gestured everyone to the dining table after hearing what Gerald had said.Upon the eldest brother’s persistence, only then did the family get seated at the dinner table. Regarding the housing matter and seeing the angered expression on their father’s face, he was afraid that he would fall sick once again from the stress and tension. Hence, for the time being, no one touched on the topic.“Gerald, have you finished your internship? Have you found a job already?” The third brother quizzed.“Hah, seems like he hasn’t found any job yet, though. It’s difficult to look for a job these days, and if it wasn’t for our third bro pulling some strings, even Francis would

“Hmm? What is it, Mr. Winters?”Mr. Winters tugged at Gerald’s sleeve and sat him down.“Of course, it’s something good! When you called earlier today, I told you about it, but I figured it’s better to tell you in person. It’s not the wisest to talk about it with my sons around.”“Ohh, please go ahead then, Mr. Winters!”“I used to work in the mines and befriended this guy. After all these years of moving around, when I went to town some time ago, I just happened to run into him, and we chatted for a bit, you know, to catch up. He told me that his granddaughter is almost the same age as you, around the same age group as you and Francis!”“She graduated from college a year earlier than you, and now her family seems anxious to find her a boyfriend. Her family is well-off and rich, so there aren't any particular criteria needed. I just thought of introducing her to you, as the family has two daughters, and she’s the eldest!” Mr. Winters explained excitedly. “So, I wanted to discuss

The both of them then hung up the phone.Gerald felt a slight pang of guilt. He felt sorry for Mila.But on second thought, he knew that this was not for real. They were just going to meet each other for a while, and that was not a big deal. On the other hand, in the room. Michelle hung up the phone and began removing her makeup. Her younger sister, Xabrina was eavesdropping on their conversation while lying on the bed. She then chuckled. “Sister, so you’re going to meet each other tomorrow. By the way, what’s his name? Do you know him?” “He’s Gerald Crawford. He studied in First Middle School before. Hmm… but why do I feel that his name is so strangely familiar? Seems like I’ve heard it somewhere before.” Michelle said as she continued removing her makeup. Both sisters had quite a charm to themselves.Xabrina scoffed and laughed, “Geez, how much dumber can you get? Sister, he’s one year younger than you, and he studied in First Middle School. You can simply just get som

The next day arrived. It was the day of the blind date, which was arranged by Mr. Winters. Although Gerald did not know what to expect of the outcome, he still took the effort to do some preparations since he had given his promise to Mr. Winters. He decided to head to Domino’s earlier.But something happened unexpectedly. He spotted a girl sitting alone and drinking coke. There were chicken wings and French fries on her table. At that moment, she was swinging her fair legs, and it seemed like she was waiting for someone. ‘Could it be her?’ Gerald thought to himself.The girl then put down her fries. She was munching while typing on the phone. Just at that moment, Gerald received a text message too. It was from Michelle. “Are you here yet?”Again, Gerald thought to himself: ‘As expected, it is that girl.’On first impressions, she was quite pretty.So Gerald went ahead and slid into the seat opposite her.“What… are you doing?” That girl was clearly shocked. She lo

Gerald realized after a while that her intention of the meet up wasn’t for the blind date.Besides, Gerald himself was unwilling to attend the blind date too. So he decided to tease her, thinking that he might be able to get it over and done with. “What are you pretending here? If you really have a house there, why don’t you go and stay there?” Xabrina sneered. “I do own a house there. It’s just that I don’t have the luxury of time to go and stay. Besides, it’s on top of the mountain. I can’t get used to it if I stay there alone. That’s a place for my future wife and me!” Gerald smiled and replied.“Oh, gosh! It’s on top of the mountain. Are you guarding the forest for anybody? Did they buy you a small house there?” Xabrina chuckled cynically, her voice dripping with contempt.“Then do you own a car? Let me tell you if I go to work in Mayberry, I won’t ride any car which costs less than forty-five thousand dollars.” She continued haughtily. “I have a car too, but I park

“It’s just a coincidence that we decided to come here for our meals too. Bree, who is this?” Suddenly, one of the men looked at Gerald and asked. “Oh! He’s my friend. No worries, if you’re busy, just go ahead and get your meals first!” Hearing that they had addressed her with her actual name, she grew too nervous. They were not just any strangers but her classmates from her middle school. Besides, they were currently studying at the same university. It was beyond her expectations that she would have bumped into them today since she was quite afraid of a situation like that might happen. “C’mon, don’t be like this, Bree. Hurry up and introduce him to us. What kind of a friend is this? Besides, he ordered so much delicious food for you. We must know who he is!”They pleaded excitedly. “Bree? Isn’t your name Michelle?” Gerald asked in confusion. “Michelle? That’s Bree’s elder sister. Eh? What’s happening? Wait, you don’t know Xabrina? Then what are you doing here?” They

Watching in fury as his black air blade dissipated, Daryl roared, “W-what power…!” As Daryl was too shocked to move, Gerald took the chance to yell, “Attack…!” And just like that, a blazing light momentarily lit the entire sky…! As surges of energy shot out in all directions, Daryl’s devilish formation was reduced to dust in a matter of seconds! “No…!” howled the anguished Daryl as the earth beneath him cracked and clouds of dust flew everywhere! It was chaos incarnate… yet moments later, everything fell deathly silent. Gerald himself had already vomited a pool of blood by now, and as he fell unconscious, he could feel his body freezing up… Fast forward to three years later, Mayberry Commercial Street was as lively as ever… “Darling, it’s your brother’s wedding day today… Shouldn’t we head over earlier? You’ve been dolling yourself up for ages!” “Fine, dad… Though, isn’t Second Uncle already there to help set things up? That aside, my brother’s gone through so many hardsh

‘Daryl’s been possessed by the Supreme Devilish Lord for ages, and the lord himself has been using your grandfather’s body to attempt his resurrection! This cycle has been repeating for years, and the Supreme Devilish Lord has already captured many people with Yin physiques but thankfully failed! This grew so out of hand that the Soluna Deus Sect, or Sun League as you call them, have actively been trying to force the Supreme Devilish Lord to show himself!’ ‘In order to further deter the Supreme Devilish Lord’s efforts, they’ve even been kidnapping people with Yin physiques! Do you see the entire picture now, boy?’ explained Finnley. ‘…So that’s the truth… Then, how’s Mila?’ asked Gerald. ‘She’s fine, but your reunion depends on whether we can destroy him this time!’ replied one of the white-robed ladies. That was relieving to hear… Still, as it turned out, the Sun League weren’t villains at all! They had simply been abducting people like his second uncle, Mila, and Leo for the

His chest felt like it was exploding, and it didn’t take long for blood to spurt out of his mouth. What immense devilish power…! Following a sneer, the Nirvadevil sect’s master scoffed, “I know you raised your cultivation level this high because you want to learn more about the Sun League, but you should understand that devilish cultivators will always be stronger! Did you really think that acquiring the angelic inheritance would give you absolute power? How laughable! Your Herculean Primordial Spirit won’t save you this time!” Furrowing his brows, Gerald retorted, “…Who on earth are you? How do you know me so well? In fact, how do you know about my Herculean Primordial Spirit?” Laughing in response, the master then said, “Oh, you’ll know who I am soon! But before that, allow me to snatch your Herculean Primordial Spirit! I need to destroy it so that the sacred Primordial Devilish Internal Pellet can reign supreme…!” Upon hearing that, Gerald couldn’t help but frown even more.

“…This formation. It feels… familiar,” muttered Sanchez. “Same thought here. I think it’s the Septelic Perishment Formation of the ancient Black Dragon Sect!” replied Gerald. “Ah, no wonder it felt so familiar… Though, wasn’t this formation lost to time ages ago? How did you learn of it?” asked the surprised Sanchez. The formation had been a legendary one that, as Sanchez had said, had been lost at the end of the ancient era. Just from its name alone, one could imagine that this immensely powerful formation had been used against the people of the Deitus Realm. In the end, however, the allies of the Deitus Realm still managed to destroy the Black Dragon Sect, thus leading to the destruction of all the sect’s other mysterious and bizarre formations… Naturally, they had made sure to obliterate all of them to ensure that nobody in the future would be able to threaten them like that again in the future… Whatever the case was, Gerald was quick to reply, “I read about it somewhere. Ho

Upon hearing Gerald’s question, Lord Ethern was prompted to reveal a few samples of the herbs they were locating… and it wasn’t long before Gerald felt his eyes twitch. After all, those samples were herbs inherited by the ancient witches… In other words, they were the ones he was for as well! Naturally, Marcel recognized them as well, and he was quick to say, “…These…” Noticing how the two were looking at the herbs, Darkwind muttered, “…I take it that the herbalist they’re looking for really is Ms. Phoebe, Mr. Crawford?” “…Well, it’s hard to say if she is since Marcel already said that the timing wasn’t right… Regardless, this is an important clue. Lord Ethern, was it? Could you elaborate a bit more on your master?” muttered Gerald as he turned to face the man again. “I really can’t say…! Look, Master always appears before us in a shadowy form, so none of us have ever seen his face!” replied Lord Ethern while shaking his head. “…Is that the truth?” “I swear on my life!” exc

“Flaxen, you bloody traitor…!” roared the three other lords who grew so angry that their faces went red!However, they had no time to remain angry since the Blancetnoir Double Lords and Sanchez had already made their move! As one would expect, it only took a single round for all three of the lords to crumble to the ground.With his eyes wide open, Lord Ethern stuttered, “Who… Who the hell are you people…?!”“You don’t need to know that information. That aside, tell us what you four are planning to do already,” scoffed Gerald as he slowly approached the three defeated men.“…Who the hell do you think you are? What makes you think I’ll comply so easily?” growled Lord Ethren.Upon hearing that, Gerald raised his hand… and within a split second, Lord Ethern let out a bone-chilling wail. The Blancetnoir Double Lords had just snapped both of the poor man’s arms!“If you want your other limbs intact, don’t make me repeat the question,” growled Gerald.Now terrified, the agonized man replied,

From what Gerald could tell, all of them were devilish cultivators. After all, their auras were way different compared to regular cultivators like Gerald and demonic cultivators like Sanchez. Though he had read about devilish cultivators before in one of Uncle Zeman’s books, this was his first time actually coming across them. It was a while later when the frowning Sanchez muttered, “So, they want to ambush some herb lady… Is she the one we’re looking for?” Sanchez, for one, had pretty much been frowning throughout his journey with Gerald. His only hope at the moment was for Gerald to find the person he was looking for as soon as possible. Otherwise, who knew how long that boy would continue controlling his life! Regardless, Marcel was quick to add, “I had the same thought, Mr. Crawford. After all, Phoebe excels not only in pharmacology, but also in all sorts of special techniques and formations!” Watching as Gerald nodded, the Blancetnoir Double Lords couldn’t help but scoff,
The Secretly Rich Man Chapter 2506
There were two straightforward purposes of the trip. The first was to find Phoebe, the descendant of the ancient witches. Only by finding her would Gerald have a chance to locate Daryl’s hideout… Hopefully the Yinblood pellet—that was now in his hands—would aid with that effort… As for the second goal, he was hoping to retrieve the inheritance according to the Zearl’s instructions. After all, he’d only stand a fighting chance against Daryl and the Soluna Sect after getting the inheritance. While it was true that Gerald’s cultivation level was currently one of the highest in all of the cultivation realm, the fact remained that Daryl practiced devilish cultivation, and those from the Soluna Deus Sect were already in the Deitus Realm. In other words, he was merely an ant to them, which was why he was making sure to fully prepare himself before confronting them. Though he now had Sanchez and the Blancetnoir Double Lords under his command, he still felt that he was underprepared… Re
The Secretly Rich Man Chapter 2505
Now that all three of them had been subdued with the Nineraid Band, the other big shot cultivators couldn’t help but stare enviously at Gerald, knowing full well that they’d never be able to obtain his angelic artifacts. After all, if he could take down the Blancetnoir Double Lords and Sanchez, then what chance did they have? By this point, Sanchez had managed to get to his feet, albeit with quite a bit of difficulty. Naturally, he no longer dared to make any rash moves on Gerald. Instead, he was prompted to resentfully say, “You’re really something else, Gerald…! It makes me wonder why you still need our help. After all, not only are you the sole person who knows the secrets of the general’s tomb, but you also possess those angelic artifacts!” “Oh, don’t you worry about that. With how powerful you three are, I’m sure you’ll become indispensable assistants as we head to the North Desert in search of a certain someone! Speaking of which, if you’re already thinking about killing me t
